Hailing from Massachusetts--a place itself steeped in history--the
Jolly Rogues are themselves an "auditory flashback" to the music of the
18th and 19th century. On this CD, Captain Billy's Privateers, they go
from one great sea shanty to another, and truth be told, there is quite
a bit of a nautical flair going on here--which is already reflected in
the title of the CD, so it shouldn't really be a surprise!
You can tell that these gentlemen
are into history, and you don't need to look too far for an affirmation
of that fact--they are members of The Guild of Historic Interpreters.
They stay pretty true to olde times as well, and if you see them
perform you'll probably find them dressing in three-cornered hats and
knickers and using traditional instruments
My personal favorite is track 9, "I'm A Rover Seldom Sober." It's one
of those tunes that makes you sway with it and join in singing--Rover
or not--you'll jump on the bandwagon for this track. There is a good
selection of seafaring songs here, and it is nearly all light-hearted
and pleasant--good mood music to be sure.

Here is a very talented group of Musicians who are carving out
a unique niche in local musical entertainment. The Rogues appear
attired in either 18th or 19th Century clothing or a combination of the
two periods, adding to the color and charm of the performance. Listen
to “Lark in the Clear Air”

Dear Mr. Murray,
I'm writing regarding your band, The
Jolly Rogues. I got your most recent CD, 14 Miles to Boston, and I
really like what you guys are doing. My favorite tracks are Soldier's
Joy / Liberty, Bonnie Charlie, Hal An Tow and The Fox. From the looks
of your website you guys are a lot more popular than I realised, which
is good because New England needs a cultural revival band. The
Maritimes have Stan Rogers. The Brittish Isles have more than I would
list, most notably Steeleye Span. Why shouldn't this area have a
popular folk band?
Reviewer: Jason Brazeal
an excellent cd. With
what imagination would dictate as very accurate reproductions of tavern
music from the 1700's. Very good traveling music. I love
it

I'm webmaster of the German folk-portal site

and
I write reviews for the German printmagazine "Folkmagazin",which goes to 2000-2500 subscribers.The
review that’s in the Folkmagazin.
"The american band The Jolly Rogues are one
of these bands which are probably totally unknown in Germany. That’s a pity, because the band shows on
“14 Miles To Boston”
much enthusiasm and filigree instrument play on irish ballads and
groovy instrumentals. An album with seriousness, much fun and a
successful mix of irish-american folk-tradition."
